Actually Miss Blue Cow, I didn’t really need to know who you are or where you live. This is a diving bulletin board – a place to exchange ideas and opinions (hopefully). My knowing your name gives no particular credibility to your closed mind, and my statements are my opinions, though I did offer you a means to independently verify some of my statements, which you apparently refused. Actually, you should ask Ray about me since we were dive buddies for many years. Though you probably won’t get the truth, at the very least you’ll get a good sea tale – two guesses who the “hero” will be.

I hope your next 7-years of diving are at least as enlightening as the last 7, but you need to keep an open mind about all matter of things, even dive boat Captains who wear a charming façade.
